Advances in Tissue Engineering Vol 2 Stem Cells Author:Peter C. Johnson, MD, Antonios G. Mikos, PhD Advances in Tissue Engineering, Volume 2: Stem Cells presents the latest findings and research on: The interplay of stem cells in developing parenchymal tissues and their vasculature; micro environmental influences that affect stem cell development; molecular mechanisms underlying stem cell differentiation; major influences that are being... more » applied to stem cells to guide their development; including cellular influences; physical factors; and soluble agents; target enhancement technologies for optimal localization of mesenchymal stem cells in the body; technical issues including cellular characterization and manufacturing scale-up processes. Edited by Peter C. Johnson, MD, and Antonios G. Mikos, PhD and featuring the groundbreaking work of literally hundreds of the acknowledged leaders in the field Advances in Tissue Engineering provides comprehensive, in-depth content covering every aspect of this rapidly-evolving field, from angiogenics to stem cell research and more. Each comprehensive volume provides Essential overviews, spotlighting structure-function relationships in normal and pathologic tissues with the ultimate goal of developing biological substitutes. High-quality review papers, critical discussions and analysis, and the latest research to assess current status and future directions. The very latest procedures and protocols, many of which will be adopted by the tissue engineering community as research is translated into clinical applications.« less
